Marcel Gottlieb (14 July 1934 – 4 December 2016), known professionally as Gotlib, was a French comics artist/writer and publisher. Through his own work and the magazines he co-founded, L'Écho des savanes and Fluide Glacial, he was a key figure in the switch in French-language comics from their children's entertainment roots to an adult tone and readership. His most relevant works include Rubrique-à-Brac, Rhâââââ-Lovely (its legacy include a music festival in Belgium named after the series, the Rhaaa-Lovely festival, in Namur), as well as Rhâââââ-gnagna, Gai-Luron, and Superdupont.
